The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down the next 16 days for Jaconé. The first real surf worth talking about doesn’t kick in until Wednesday morning, so there’s a quiet start to the week.
The standout window is Wednesday morning, the 15th, through to Thursday morning, the 16th. Wednesday morning has a clean 6 ft SSE swell with a 10-second period, and the wind is offshore from the NE at 9 mph. That’s going to glass up the faces nicely. The combined energy is moderate (679), so there’s some push behind it. This is the pick of the lot. Thursday morning follows with a similar setup: 5 ft SE swell, 11-second period, same offshore NE wind. The energy drops a bit (520), but still a very solid option.
The next week brings a few more highlights. On Monday the 20th, the afternoon session sees a 4 ft ENE swell with offshore breeze and clean conditions. Not huge, but fun. Then Tuesday the 21st morning has a 5 ft ENE swell (8 seconds) with offshore NE wind at 6 mph, producing moderate energy (427). Good for a cruiser.
Another real standout pops up on Saturday the 25th. The morning has a 3 ft S swell, but the period is a very long 13 seconds, meaning it’s proper groundswell. The wind is offshore from the NE at 9 mph, and the combined energy is 518. That’s a quality, lined-up swell, but at a beach break it might run a little straight. Still, clean conditions and that period make it worth a paddle.
The 29th of July – Wednesday morning – is another one to note. Glassy conditions, no wind, with a 3 ft E swell. That’s rare, and it’ll be silky smooth.
For the size, through the whole period the swell hovers mostly between 3 ft and 6 ft, so it’s manageable for intermediates. Only the 7 ft SSW swell on the 23rd afternoon gets into expert territory, but the wind is messy cross-onshore, so that’s one to skip.
Crowds at Jaconé can be around sometimes, but with these moderate sizes and the clean morning windows, you’ll get plenty of waves to yourself if you’re early.
All in all, the best on offer is Wednesday morning, July 15th and Saturday morning, July 25th. The 15th is cleaner, the 25th has more grunt and period. Both are solid.
Rusty.

Information about the Jaconé Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Jaconé provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jaconé can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jaconé surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Jaconé) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Jaconé may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Jacone is 14 km (9 miles) from the city of Saquarema. If you plan a holiday in Rio de Janeiro, look for hotels and other accommodation in Saquarema. Saquarema has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
